A Political. Sion.?It is now certain
that substantial victory ban fallen to i
tbe Democrats in tbe New Hampshire <
election. Tbe Republican majority of <
2,000 obtained laut year is obliterated, i
nnd Governor Western's large plurality <
is made tantamount to au election by
the ohoice of a Legislature decidedly
Democratic. This event the leading
Republican papers of New Englaud no
count for by reference to Butleritmi,
Sanboru contracts, the moiety system,
defalcation,", scandalous appointments, -
(illustrated by many,) aud tho failure of
Congress to meet the wants of the peo?
ple. Tho New York Journal of Com- j
mcrce considers it enconrngiug to see ]
party organs disposed to be frank. Iu i
the old dsys or stricter political alle- j
gianeo, noue of tbeso reasons would have 1
been given, but the faults of tho Ad?
ministration would have been shielded
at all hazards, and the defeat explained
ou tho theory of illegal votiug or count?
ing, general apathy, tho wenther or any?
thing else bat tho truth. These bud?
ding dispositions to reform abuses and
drive out dishonest men should b' en?
couraged.
Thu Now York Post, also Republican,
in an editorial styled "A Dou jle De?
feat," 6ays that it is ridiculous tu deny
that the New Hampshire election is a
signal defeat of the Administration.
Tue failuro of the Administration to en?
force any financial or revenue policy, if
it has auy, and its errors of commissiou
iu the oivil service, have contributed
enough alone to defeat thu candidates
who represent it.
